Rescue Story
Dan’s life began in the middle of war. Together with his brother Benny and a few other pups, he was discovered by a kind soldier among the ruins of a bombed-out house — their mother had been killed by shrapnel. The soldier cared for them as best he could, sharing his food and shelter in the trenches.

Desperate for help, he sent out a plea online. And our partner rescue replied. But it was hard to find a transport ready to go over 1000 km to frontline to collect pups. And a brave British volunteer, Brian, stepped in and drove deep into the war zone to bring the puppies to safety.

Dan’s journey from the battlefield to the safety of foster care is nothing short of a miracle — proof that kindness still survives even in the darkest times.

More About Dan
Now living with a foster family in a quiet countryside home, Dan has learned to trust again. He’s fully housetrained, affectionate, and calm indoors. He loves his walks, enjoys playtime in the garden, and is very social with other dogs.

Though a little wary in new surroundings and with unfamiliar people at first, he warms up quickly when shown kindness. On his own ground, he’s alert, but outside the gate he greets everyone with cheerful curiosity.

He’s a bright boy who loves learning and thrives on positive attention. Active, loyal, and gentle — Dan is the perfect companion for someone who wants a true friend by their side.

Ideal Family
Dan will flourish in a rural or semi-rural home, away from city traffic and loud noises. He needs a garden, regular exercise, and a patient, loving family who will help him continue building confidence.

Another friendly female dog is essential to guide and reassure him, as he’s happiest with canine company. Older children (10+) would suit his calm yet playful temperament.

Dan’s story began in fear, but it can end in love. With his kind heart and loyal nature, he’s ready to give his whole soul to the people who give him a chance. Somewhere out there is a family meant just for him — could it be you?

Health Information
Dan is fully healthy. Neutered. Has all core vaccines done and is microchipped. All dogs are C.Brucella tested before travel (owners receive a licensed laboratory test certificate).

RBU, post-adoption support, and 4 weeks free PetPlan insurance provided upon adoption.

Phoebe 1-2 year old female Shepherd Cross

Phoebe is a 1-2 year old female Shepherd Cross. She sleeps downstairs in a large crate with the door open. Her current owner has been sleeping downstairs with her. She will sometimes wake during the night to make her home aware she needs the toilet. Phoebe wakes up most mornings at 6 am. Phoebe is happy to be groomed/brushed by the female in the home. Phoebe enjoys going out into the garden to sniff around and explore. She goes out on a slip lead with no issues. Phoebe has yet to go for a proper walk due to her building her confidence in the garden first and getting used to the lead. It is encouraged that she should wear a harness but this has yet to be introduced. Positive reward training and allowing Phoebe to explore the harness initially will need to be carried out. She hasn’t been left unattended in the home since arrival so correct training around leaving her for short periods will be vital to prevent anxiety behaviours. Phoebe listens to commands well and will sit for treat...

Meet Connie – From Surviving to Thriving Connie is a 2 year old female Puli Cross. Her story began in a public pound, where she grew up in harsh conditions. A year ago, she was rescued in a heartbreaking state – skin and bone, frightened and frail. With care, love, and patience, Connie has blossomed into a happy, affectionate girl.
